Similar to Sonic The Hedgehog’s China premiere being postponed by Paramount, Paramount Pictures is delaying its plans for a three-week shoot of Tom Cruise’s Mission Impossible 7 in Venice, Italy due to the coronavirus.
The studio issued an announcement Monday regarding the postponement,
“Out of an abundance of caution for the safety and well-being of our cast and crew, and efforts of the local Venetian government to halt public gatherings in response to the threat of coronavirus, we are altering the production plan for our three week shoot in Venice, the scheduled first leg of an extensive production for ‘Mission: Impossible 7,’”
“During this hiatus we want to be mindful of the concerns of the crew and are allowing them to return home until production starts. We will continue to monitor this situation, and work alongside health and government officials as it evolves.”
